Abstract
A hyperspectral image (HSI) super-resolution (SR) is a highly attractive topic in computer vision. However, most existed methods require an auxiliary high-resolution (HR) image with respect to the input low-resolution (LR) HSI. This limits the practicability of these HSI SR methods. Moreover, these methods often destroy the important spectral information. This letter presents a deep spectral difference convolutional neural network (SDCNN) with the combination of a spatial-error-correction (SEC) model for HSI SR. This method allows for full exploration of the spectral and spatial correlations, which achieves a good spatial information enhancement and spectral information preservation. In the proposed method, the key band is automatically selected and super-resolved with the boundary bands. Meanwhile, spectral difference mapping between the LR and HR HSIs can be learned by the SDCNN, and then be transformed according to the SEC model, which aims at correcting the spatial error while preserving the spectral information. The rest nonkey bands will be super-resolved under the guidance of the transformed spectral difference. Experimental results on synthesized and real-scenario HSIs suggest that the proposed method: 1) achieves comparable performance without requiring any auxiliary images of the same scene and 2) requires less computation time than the state-of-the-art methods.
